Abstract

PURPOSE:To gain a light but strong valve lifter by forming hollows and ribs at least on respective parts of the back surface of a tip and the inside surface of the skirt, of a valve lifter. CONSTITUTION:Valve lifter 5 is formed in a bottom up cylinder style with a cylindrical skirt 6 that slides in a guide hole and a disc like tip 7 provided on the upper end of it. On the back surface 7a of the tip 7, tip side hollows 13 in a quarter circle shape are provided and between them cross shape ribs 14 are formed. The thickness of this tip side hollows 13 are formed thinner than the conventional one. On the inner surface of the skirt 6, hollow channels 11 are formed along the full circle at a fixed interval, and between respective adjacent skirt side hollow channels 11, a rib 12 also serving as a reinforced member is formed.

(Prior Art) Generally, a valve lifter is interposed between a cam and a valve, and plays the role of converting the rotational movement of the cam into reciprocating movement of the valve, so that a large pressing force is applied to the entire valve lifter.

従って、従来よりこのバルブリフタは自身全体を比較的
厚肉とすることによってこれらの性能を維持している。
Therefore, conventional valve lifters maintain these performances by making the entire valve lifter relatively thick.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, since the valve lifter configured as described above has a large weight, it tends to have a large moment of inertia.

特に、近年の内燃機関は高回転域までスムーズに回って
高い出力を発生するように性能向上が図られているため
、このような内燃機関に慣性モーメントの大きいバルブ
リフタを使用すると、高回転域においてバルブが追従し

く、燃費も向上しないという問題がある。
In particular, the performance of modern internal combustion engines has been improved so that they can rotate smoothly up to the high speed range and generate high output, so if a valve lifter with a large moment of inertia is used in such an internal combustion engine, There is a problem in that the valves are not able to fully follow the same conditions (this results in not only not being able to achieve the intended performance, but also not improving fuel efficiency).

Further, a clasp 18 is attached to the upper end of the valve stem 16, and the clasp 18 is formed in the shape of a truncated cone whose lower surface is reduced in diameter. A valve spring retainer 19 is fitted around the outer circumference of the cock 18, and the tapered inner circumferential surface of the valve spring retainer 19 is in contact with the tapered outer circumferential surface of the cock 18. Further, a valve spring 21 is mounted in a compressed state between the flange portion of the valve spring retainer 19 and a support surface 20 provided within the cylinder head 1. The valve spring 21 always urges the valve 17 upward and brings the upper end of the valve stem 16 into contact with the contact portion 15 of the valve lifter 5.
